coupling
Hi, we have air-conditioning in both bedrooms with two units stuck on the outside of the house. This heat as made me realize that we need it in the lounge but I don’t want another ugly unit stuck outside. Now I know you can’t have two outlets run of one unit (efficiently) at the same time but surely there must be some sort of coupling that would allow you to run one or the other. When I suggest this to the plumbers (British) they purse there lips and say ’sorry can’t be done mate’. anybody know better.

You would have to start again, it is possible to buy outside units that run 2 or 3 inside units

Re: coupling
you can not, and must not tap into air conditioning, its not the same as central heating, you will need a bigger condensing unit outside to handle the 3 indoor evaporator units, or add one more for your lounge, always get a bigger condensing unit, at the start so you can add to it later, if you need more indoor units. The plumbers are correct, having said that, alot of "Plumbers" are not air con engineers".

Re: coupling
Nothing to add, I hoped this thread would be about a different type of "coupling".
